Key highway links in Chile are likely to see upgrading, although the operation of the links could change. The country’s Ministry of Public Works (MOP) is keen to see widening work for Ruta 68, a route currently operated by 5729 Abertis. However MOP has not revealed if it intends to buy back the Ruta 68 contract from the operator and then put the highway back out to tender, with the new deal then including the widening work. It may prove simpler to strike a new deal with Abertis that includes the necessary highway upgrade.
Meanwhile interest is strong in Chile’s Americo Vespucio Oriente 2 motorway project (AVO). Abertis and another Spanish firm, Sacyr, are showing interest in this highway and have discussed running it under a partnership arrangement.
